Nemotron streaming fine-tune experimental
Streaming: text appears while you speak. Same recordings and recipe as Jachnun v1.0, on NVIDIA's cache-aware streaming model. No name yet.

experimental streaming measured at 560 ms not in any app
Today it runs in NVIDIA NeMo, from the .nemo file. Offline transcription, from the model card:
import nemo.collections.asr as nemo_asr
from huggingface_hub import hf_hub_download
path = hf_hub_download(
"Hebrish/Nemotron-Speech-Streaming-EN-0.6B-English-Hebrew-Codeswitching",
"Nemotron-Speech-Streaming-EN-0.6B-English-Hebrew-Codeswitching.nemo",
)
model = nemo_asr.models.ASRModel.restore_from(path)
print(model.transcribe(["clip.wav"])[0].text) # 16 kHz mono
Streaming works as for the base model, with cache-aware inference. Set att_context_size = [70, N]:
| N | 0 | 1 | 6 | 13 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chunk | 80 ms | 160 ms | 560 ms | 1,120 ms |
Smaller chunks mean less delay. NeMo's speech_to_text_cache_aware_streaming_infer.py example script shows the loop; see the base model card.
- Streaming accuracy, measured at 560 ms. On the held-out split (387 clips) it scored 5.65% code-switching WER while streaming, against 5.81% offline: no measurable loss, although it was fine-tuned offline with full context. The smallest chunks (80 and 160 ms) are not measured; check them for your use.
- No on-device format yet. sherpa-onnx runs NeMo cache-aware streaming transducers, so an ONNX export for sherpa-onnx is the likely route to phones and desktops. Nobody has tried it on this model yet; it is on the projects board.
- Licence: the NVIDIA Open Model License Agreement, not CC-BY-4.0. Read it before shipping. Not made or endorsed by NVIDIA.
